I was trying to get a photo of the little bees after I took photos of this big bumble bee but wasn't successful but I see I got a good picture of one with the bumblebee. I think it's a Ligated Furrow Bee minus it's usual coating of pollen but it has a little bit stuck to it. The big ones is a Brown-belted Bumble Bee Bombus griseocollis I think.
